Jake Locker in town, ready to go

Titans rookie quarterback Jake Locker is already in Nashville, and is prepared to report to Baptist Sports Park when the doors open for the first time on Tuesday.

That’s a great sign for the Titans. Locker, the eighth overall pick of the draft, will be able to spend time with the coaching staff even before he’s under contract. The Titans will also be able to start negotiating with his agent on Tuesday.

Locker won’t be able to take part in training camp until he’s signed, but the two sides have several days to negotiate. In the meantime, Locker won’t have to wait to work. He’s clearly ready to go.
